Has your weight in the 2nd trimester stabilized or are you still going up? I have stabilized a lot compared to my first trimester. My first trimester I felt like I just exploded but since my 2nd trimester I have pretty much been up about 3lb compared to 10-13 in the first trimester.
I feel like my weight gain is starting to slow down too but I think it's because all I could eat in 1st tri was carbs and very little protein. I'm now able to eat more protein which has been great. I'm also trying to watch my diet a little better than 1st tri.
I am finally back up to my prepregnancy weight; I lost 12 lbs during the first trimester. This happened when I was pregnant with DS as well, but it took me until 26 weeks to get back to my prepregnancy weight with him. Hopefully my weight gain is on track now.
I barely gained anything during my first trimester. In the time that I was at the doctor from June to July, I gained 4 lbs. I am at a total of 12 lbs. and I'm 22 weeks today. I'm actually pretty proud of that. LOL.
I have gained about 13-15 pounds since pre pregnancy...at my 20 week, I was up like 5 pounds from my wk 16 appointment! i was fortunate to not have any MS in 1st tri so i've just been gaining. I personally think I am about 2-3 pounds ahead of where I should be, but my doctor didn't have anything to say about it when I mentioned that I was concerned. The ice cream every night is definitely not helping.
I only gained 2-3 lbs the first trimester. Most of my weight gain has been in the past month. I start really gaining around week 16. I've now gained about 12 lbs total.
I didn't gain anything until my 16 week appt. I've gained about 10 lbs total. It's all come in the last month so I am kinda freaking our but my doc doesn't seem concerned. I've tried to cut back on the fries and ice cream though.

I've gained 12 pounds so far. I don't feel like I'm gaining as rapidly as before. At least I hope not lol. I'm glad to read I'm in the average range with the rest of you ladies..lately looking in the mirror I feel like an elephant...smh. I just hope to loss it as fast as I did with my DD. At least we're half way there!!
I gained 2 pounds for the first 17 weeks, and in the past 4 weeks I have gained 13 pounds! My doctor says it's fine though, because I was underweight when I got pregnant.
I gained 4 pounds in first and now I'm really climbing for a total of 14 now. I've read that if you gain in first, you will level off gradually throughout. If you dont gain any weight in first, then your body will signal to compensate and pick up the pace
Re: 2nd Trimester Weight
I'm still down about 10lbs off my pre-pg weight. I'm definitely gaining in my stomach area, but am losing everywhere else (well, not my boobs).
I have an appt Thurs, and I am interested to see if my doc says anything about it..
